Birmingham City midfielder Tomoki Iwata scored an FA Cup wondergoal against Newcastle United – only minutes after inflicting costly damage on a piece of pitchside equipment.
Magpies man Bruno Guimaraes sent Iwata tumbling into a broadcast camera in the 37th minute, with the Birmingham star tumbling down the ground, rolling over and cracking the lens with his foot.
The BBC, who broadcasted the game, cut to the viewpoint of that particular camera to show that it had been ruined by the clattering from Iwata. Commentator Guy Mowbray joked: “I think we might be invoicing them for that.”
Just three minutes later, Iwata struck a sweet half-volley to level the game at 2-2.
